We flew all the way to London just to visit Aivi but we've only seen her 3 times due to the swine flu!! She was quarantined for 3-4 days and her apartment building hired a warden to make sure no one left. So what did we do while Aivi was locked up in her room? LOADS! Gosh, I feel kind of guilty because I've been having so much fun!
I promise to make a legit blog once I get back to the states but for now, ya'll just gonna have to deal with these brief posts.
Together, all three of us have covered more than 90% of the attractions in London. London's summer heatwave was great because we had beautiful sunny weather almost everyday, which catalyzed more-than-normal touring action. I can honestly say that we ruled the tube train station here. Go team America! From the queen's buckingham palace to Shakespear's very own globe theater, a lot was accomplished in only 7 days.
